Research and Markets: United Kingdom Commercial Banking Report Q3 2009 - Independent Forecasts and Competitive Intelligence on the United Kingdom's Commercial Banking Industry

DUBLIN--(Business Wire)--
Research and Markets
(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/855e86/united_kingdom_com) has
announced the addition of the "United Kingdom Commercial Banking Report Q3 2009"
report to their offering. 

The United Kingdom Commercial Banking Report provides industry professionals and
strategists, corporate analysts, banking associations, government departments
and regulatory bodies with independent forecasts and competitive intelligence on
the United Kingdom's commercial banking industry. 

The report follows a rigorous approach to analysing commercial banking sectors
around the world. We have collated data relevant to national commercial banking
sectors that have been published by central banks, regulators and/or trade
associations, as well as basic information concerning individual market
participants. 

We have also considered BMI's current views on the economic outlook for the
country in question. Many aspects have been and continue to be brought together
in a systematic way through our proprietary Commercial Bank Business Environment
Ratings (CBBER), which facilitate cross-country comparisons. In Q309 the analyst
has continued to extend the scope of its commercial banking report series, both
in terms of the depth in which individual states are assessed and the number of
banking systems analysed. 

Enhanced Global And Regional Context 

We have expanded our coverage of the global and regional banking sectors to
ensure that developments in individual banking are placed firmly within the
context of neighbouring and linked markets. Separate regional overviews have
been provided for emerging Europe, Asia, Latin America, the Middle East and
sub-Saharan Africa. The aim is to flag up pan-regional developments, highlight
countries that stand outside regional trends and isolate potential systemic
risks. 

Expanded Universe Of Commercial Banking Sectors 

This quarter we are launching 13 new country reports. Building on our expertise
analysing emerging market economies, the focus is on enhancing coverage of key
developed states (France, Switzerland, Austria, Italy, Canada, Australia),
emerging Europe (Bosnia, Bulgaria, Croatia), Asia (Sri Lanka, Bangladesh) and
Latin America (Peru). This will take the total number of countries covered to
59.

In Q209 we included company profiles in our reports for the first time. This
quarter we are looking to include more balance sheet data, and also expand the
existing company profiles.
